About Karnevalsumzüge Niederzissen

The Carnival parades in Niederzissen and the surrounding communities of the Brohltal municipality (Verbandsgemeinde) boast one of the densest Carnival calendars in the Ahrweiler district. With Niederzissen on Rose Monday as the highlight, parades in Weibern and Glees on Carnival Saturday, in Königsfeld on Tulip Sunday, and in Dedenbach on Shrove Tuesday are spread throughout the entire Carnival week. The VG Brohltal thus cultivates its own distinct Carnival tradition at the transition from the Vulkaneifel to the Middle Rhine, featuring lively village Carnival clubs, floats, dance troupes, and music bands. Those wishing to experience the full Brohltal Carnival program can travel through the region from the weekend before Ash Wednesday to Shrove Tuesday.

Carnival Stronghold VG Brohltal

The Brohltal municipality, with its administrative seat Niederzissen, is located at the transition from the Vulkaneifel to the Middle Rhine and belongs to the Ahrweiler district. In the many villages and districts of the VG, a vibrant Carnival tradition has developed over generations, expressed in a multitude of parades throughout the entire Carnival week. The Rose Monday parade in Niederzissen forms the grand centerpiece.

Niederzissen on Rose Monday

Niederzissen is the administrative seat of the VG Brohltal and the central location of the region. The Rose Monday parade winds through the main street and the town center, uniting local Carnival clubs, schools, and music bands in a joint performance. Floats, walking groups, dance troupes, and music bands provide a colorful spectacle. The assembly takes place in the early afternoon.

Weibern and Glees on Carnival Saturday

Already on Carnival Saturday, February 14, 2026, parades will take place in Weibern and Glees through the village centers. These village Carnival parades are smaller than the Niederzissen procession but are characterized by a special village atmosphere. The clubs often work in neighborly cooperation, so that floats and walking groups from several communities form the procession.

Königsfeld on Tulip Sunday and Dedenbach on Shrove Tuesday

On Tulip Sunday, February 15, 2026, the Carnival parade in Königsfeld, a district of the VG Brohltal, follows. The conclusion on Shrove Tuesday, February 17, 2026, is marked by the parade in Dedenbach. This staggered sequence allows Carnival enthusiasts to attend several parades consecutively and get to know the different accents of the individual village Carnival clubs.

Village Carnival with Character

The Brohltal village Carnival thrives on the close-knit club structure in the villages, where Carnival societies, fire brigades, sports clubs, and music bands collaborate. The floats are built over the year in the float halls, with motifs humorously addressing local topics, village stories, and supra-regional allusions. The Carnival parties in the village halls after the parades are often at least as important as the parades themselves.

Karnevalsumzüge Niederzissen — edition 2026

The 2026 edition of the Carnival parades in the VG Brohltal is spread throughout the entire Carnival week. The parades in Weibern and Glees kick things off on Saturday, February 14, followed by the Tulip Sunday parade in Königsfeld on February 15. The highlight is the Rose Monday parade in Niederzissen on February 16, before the Brohltal Carnival concludes with the parade in Dedenbach on Shrove Tuesday, February 17.
